Figure 30 shows the DAC5686 output spectrum for the preceding example. The amplitudes of the clock-related
spurs agree quite well with the predicted amplitudes in Table 4 .

External-Clock Mode
In dual-bus mode, two separate parallel data streams (I and Q) are input to the DAC5686 on data bus DA and
data bus DB. Dual-bus mode is selected by setting INTERL to 0 in the config_msb register. Figure 31 shows
the DAC5686 data path in dual-bus mode. The dual-bus mode timing diagram is shown in Figure 32 for the PLL
clock mode and in Figure 33 for the external clock mode.
